Right. There's plenty of shows out there that look promising in principle (although we know how often that amounts to nothing) so even by the laws of, er, anime, there has to be at least a handful of titles worth watching.

Sounds like you've given this some thought!
I would say that in retrospect, maybe they're not as bad as they seemed, but saying they're better than the actual plot would be a real stretch.
After his death, Hitler became the most powerful Hollow and revived the Third Reich in Hueco Mundo.

Milky Holmes S2 3
I also like the art style used for the backgrounds:
Well the art director for the original Mily Holmes was Shichiro Kobayashi. The art director of - Utena, Angel's Egg, The Caste of Cagliostro, Simoun and a bunch of other stuff.
About a minute or so, yeah.
NUUOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo. It's always a time of great celebration when the show returns to manga material, which is saying something.
Beyblade has been back, the Metal Fight trilogy started in 2009 and is ending this or next month. Odd how they are using a picture of the Metal Fight cast for Zero G, the main character has been revealed.
Cross Fight B-Daman 1-3
If you can't tell it's a 15 minute toy commercial, but it's fun to watch. The toys premise isn't as good for an anime as Beyblade/battling toys but so far they have done a fine job with it.
No there worse, there not fma or naruto filler bad but there mostly bad except for bounto arc that was pretty decent untill the final fight.
This hamster show is hilarious, I came across is by accident on youtube, I was like"waht fuuuuk" for like 30mins

If anyone doubts the infinite terribleness of Bleach filler arcs, keep in mind that the villain design is usually representative of the quality of the arc.

Poor, unfortunate soul. Truly born to be an anime masochist.
Honestly, I dropped shortly after
Final Aizen Battle
Edit: Hehe. Look at lil' Aizen #2 up tharr.
One is not a true anime masochist until they have seen Skelter+Heaven.

MadPierrot chose his path! Just like he chose to marathon the worst of the worst.
Is Beyblade getting yugioh hairstyles or has it always been like that?

hey hey hey. The filler arcs tend to have some of the best choreographed fights in the show due to not being restricted to kubo's manga. byakuya vs the zombie man was pretty fucking rad!
And I really liked that new captain arc, until they just killed the guy off at the end because they had to end fillers >.>"
With how Kubo rolls, I can easily predict a "Final season" that's 50+ eps.
So now, Toriko will be one of the 3 pillars now? #gamechanger.
I would have died if I tried to marathon this stuff, but 22 minutes a week for several years still adds up. Now I can only wonder how I managed to tolerate that much shit.

You've had a tough week, bro.
It is time to take a break.
What you should be asking is, are they mostly metal and more dangerous than ever?

Guy with green and yellow hair is the best, by which I mean the worst, at least what I can see.
Funny thing is animegaf is hyped for saint seiya when it's a lot worse then both bleach and naruto.
"Hey, I have a lot of free time! I know what to do with it. I'll torture myself!"
You have my condolences.
You can't talk like that with a Brazilian in the room.

That people marathon these shows seems to be an argument against the existence of free will.
There must be a greater force like the devil or peer-pressureGAF

Gunbuster - end
masterpiece
Well, I'm not sure if I'd go that far, but the way the series ends certainly helps to elevate the work greatly.

I remember liking Bleach once. I stopped midway in the Hueco Mundo arc though; too repetitive. :-/

Hey, at least 2 of those villains seem decent...ish.
Ehh they haven't been multicolored like Yu-Gi-Oh (besides a few characters like Ryuuga), the new one seems to be going the multicolor route. Yu-Gi-Oh seems to have more strands of hair rather than a large clump of it so it's slightly different.
Trapeze 8
Well, this was unusual for a Trapeze episode, in that
.
I like the way all the episodes of Trapeze occur simultaneously. Not only is it kinda nice to see parts of earlier episodes make brief cameos in later ones, it also emphasizes the point that, even if all of these people have disorders, they're not incredibly exceptional or unique. They're having problems at the same time as all these other people that they don't know.
I guess I've watched the show enough that I don't even notice the art direction anymore.
The end credits song is wonderful, and brings a smile to my face at the end of every episode.

I think people like Mad Pierrot, justify my mocking of Bleach fans.
I can't disagree ;_; I thought I hated Bleach, but I think I just discovered that I apparently love it more than anyone.
DTL, if you read this, did you make it through the Bleach fillers? I need to gauge my level of Bleach fanboyism.
I'll give you that Byakuya vs. Kouga was one of the best fights in the entire series, and possibly only behind Ichigo vs. Grimmjow. And as terrible as the last filler arc was, the final episode had movie-quality animation for seemingly no reason at all. I know they put these things in at the end as a way of saying "thanks for putting up with all this shit", but it's not nearly enough.
Amagai Shuusuke arc might have actually been tolerable if Ichigo wasn't protecting a loli oujosama and there wasn't an inordinate focus on Izuru.
Yes, he's by far the worst. And not just that, he's a copy of a previous filler character:
DTL watches the fillers of all the shounen anime. He is leagues above you in shounen spirit

Materialized Zanpaktou is the best filler, followed by Gotei 13 army, 11th captain, and after watching the Bounts arc 3 times, probably my least favorite, on account of its slow start. And one must admit, they at least gave all but the Bounts arc, pretty memorable OP and EDs.
They were really imaginative with zanpaktou forms and made it as intense as a canon arc, really. Muramasa was cool.
So I guess "Queens Blade Rebellion Siggys Passionate Sacred Pose Lessons" is out. Siggy being the Kobayashi character.
I wonder what 'passionate sacred pose lessons' could be, I look forward to your impressions.

What have you done, sir?
What crime have you committed so devious to make yourself pay this price?
I must know.
Anyone who got through that first Bleach filler arc has my respect.
What is this I don't even

The funny thing is that the current anime arc feels like a subpar filler.
I'll be watching at least the first episode of probably half that list.
At least it's better than me who'll watch the first 3 episodes of 99% of that list and proceed to not drop any of them.
